7 Two Cherubins also of beaten gold, which he set on either side of the propitiatory:📜💬📚
8 One Cherub in the top of one side, and the other Cherub in the top of the other side: two Cherubins in each top of the Propitiatory,📜💬📚

18 six on both sides, three branches on one side, & three on the other:📜💬📚
19 three cups in manner of a nut on every branch, and bowls withal and lilies, and three cups of the fashion of a nut in an other branch, and bowls withal and lilies. The work of the six branches, that proceeded from the shaft of the candlestick, equal.📜💬📚
